Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 645: Do you know something?

Standing on the towering city wall, feeling the cold wind blowing over the wilderness, Yang Yu watched Pirufu retreat with the large army and did not pursue it.

The Luoze defenders in Dongwang City are not on the same order of magnitude as the defenders in other cities. Even though they suffered numerous casualties in defending Dongwang City, they still possess extremely powerful combat capabilities.

If you rush forward at all costs, you will only lead to your own destruction.

The Luhua Army is also well aware of the principle of chasing the enemy when they are poor. Their current offensive mission has been completed. The advantage is rare and they need to be cautious.

The soldiers are already very tired. There is no need to risk the pursuit. It is more cost-effective to savor the fruits of victory and rest.

Withdrawing from the north gate of Dongwang City, Pirufu and the Kabox troops who had bypassed Dongwang City joined forces and jointly retreated tactically to Qianluo Canyon.

Putting on thick clothes and drinking the thawing potion, Piruf's frostbite was slowly eliminated and his body became slightly warmer.

"Kaji, what do you think about the traitor?"

When his body recovered, Pirufu immediately drove his horse closer to the card box,

"It is definitely not a coincidence that so many cannons have problems together. They can still manipulate such cannons in full view of the public. How did they do it?"

"I have no way of knowing this."

The card box shook his head,

"About a month ago, the bridge transporting supplies exploded, and shortly thereafter, a huge hole opened in the eastern city wall...

All this happened so strangely, as if someone wanted to help Wansheng Country overcome this difficulty and regain the plains.

I heard that during the investigation by the investigation team, some soldiers disappeared from the army for no apparent reason, and I wondered if this was the work of traitors.

There are traitors in the army, and all the 'accidents' that happen can be explained.

Dongwang City is located in a strategic location and is of great strategic significance. It is not surprising that it is targeted by traitors.

However, I sent people to patrol the cannons 24 hours a day, and I did not see any suspicious soldiers. I asked you to check the cannons over and over again...

Before the war started, I felt uneasy and asked you to check the cannon again.

It's a pity that even though we were all so careful, someone else still got it. ”

Piruf’s fists and palms collided fiercely, and he gritted his teeth,

"If there are really traitors, I will personally twist their heads off.

It's all their fault that we have suffered such a heavy loss. Our lives are much more important than those of the orcs!

How should I explain to His Majesty the Emperor now? ”

This time the defense battle of Dongwang City ended with a disastrous defeat for the Luoze Empire. More than half of the defenders of Dongwang City were killed or injured. This number is unique even in the history of the Luoze Empire.

I wanted to completely cut off the hopes of the orcs on Dongwang City, but in the end, I lost both my wife and my troops.

"It really can't be done. I will resist all culpability. However, I also ask General Piruf to provide compensation to the family of the deceased." Caressing his beloved horse, the card box let out a long sigh, "Sincerity and the money to maintain their lives , must give enough.”

"No problem. Let's decide this for now." Piruf did not refuse Kabox's proposal, "I have one more thing here, I want to talk to General Kabox."

"What happened?"

Piruf smiled solemnly, his brows full of anger, "Someone in the army exceeded the command, and it may be the work of a traitor. The time is the moment the bell rings."

The card box immediately understood what Piruf meant, "Didn't you order the bell to ring?"

"I didn't give the order.

At that time, I did have the intention of retreating.

However, I did not order the bell to ring for retreat!

It's okay this time. If someone rings the retreat bell privately when life is really needed, the morale of the army will become weak, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Whether it is the work of a traitor or not, it must be dealt with according to military law. ”

Just as Piruf finished speaking, a soldier not far from him swallowed guiltily.

This scene was coincidentally captured by Pirufu.

Without saying a word, Piruf jumped off his horse, held down the soldier's head with his huge palms, and pushed him into the snow.

"I remember you! You are the soldier guarding the bell! Answer me! What do you know!"

The soldier's face came into close contact with the cold ground, and the soldier who was pinned down in the snow frantically begged Piruf for mercy.

"General Piruf, this is exactly what I want to report to you. Although I am in charge of the bell, I do not have any right to ring it...

I am not the one who rings the bell.

It was the officer responsible for ringing the bell who wanted to ring the bell, so I let them in! ”

"Then answer me, which officer rang the bell. I said that people below the rank of general are not allowed to take even half a step closer to the bell." Piruf suddenly remembered something, "Speaking of which, before the war, I gave several officers the right to ring the bell. What happened to them?"

Piruf looked around, looking for his trustworthy cronies, but he looked around and around, but he could never find them.

In the past, they would follow closely behind them, but now that they have not followed, they must not have died in that war, right?

"General, general..." The soldier who was pinned to the ground by Piruf was speechless, but still told the truth he knew, "There is no need to look for those officers anymore, they... ...are all dead."

"Dead? What on earth is going on! Tell me everything you know!"

Piruf's hand couldn't help but tighten. The soldier who was pinned to the ground felt that his head was about to burst, and he hurriedly shouted:

"General, stop squeezing, my head is about to break. Among the soldiers guarding the bell like me, I am the only one left!

If I die, the general won't know what I saw.

I can’t understand the truth of the matter! ”

Hearing the soldier's wail, Piruf let go of his grip, lifted the soldier up from the snow, and placed him on the snow. His broad palms brushed the snow from his hair, and then, Put it on the soldier's shoulders,

"Tell me everything that happened and the details of what you saw. This is an order. If you dare to hide anything, you know the consequences, right?"

"Yes!"

Feeling the weight on his shoulders, the soldier responded sonorously and gave a military salute to Piruf,

"Two generals, what I am going to say next is a bit unbelievable, but these are real events that happened at that time. I ask you two generals to listen to the end."

Just as the soldier was about to continue speaking, the card box coughed slightly,

"I also want to know what happened, but now is not the time to stop. We don't know if there are pursuers behind us. We can talk while walking and respond in time if something happens."

"That's right." Piruf took his hand away from the soldier and pointed at the horse behind him, "Boy, I count you lucky this time. Just get on my horse and speak slowly."
